ABOUT
ARTIST, BACKGROUND
Christopher Ian MacClements is a classically trained architect from Pretoria residing in Cape Town. He completed his Masters Degree at the University of Pretoria and identifies as a multidisciplinary creative and designer, and self-taught graffiti artist, large scale muralist, illustrator and visual artist. Although registered as a Candidate Architect, he has shifted his focus towards his commissioned graffiti, mural, fine art, illustration and graphic design career. His love for these (including architecture, film, industrial design etc) has culminated in a multifaceted design and creative approach that draws inspiration from all his respective fields of interest. He considers each discipline a string to his bow – each one equally as instrumental in hitting the mark and finding his voice as a creative and designer. For MacClements (as he is formally known as an artist) creative exploration and collaboration inspire his creative journey. He describes himself as someone who tries daily to explore and interpret the inner workings of his mind and the minds of others through the circuitous process of design, collaboration and questioning. He believes his mentality and approach to the above was inspired by the teachings of his Grandparents, Ian (Architect) and Patricia MacClements, who taught him to see the world through this very particular yet open lens. Since his move to Cape Town in 2016, he has hosted 3 Solo Exhibitions and formed part of 2 Group Exhibitions. Additionally, amongst other creative successes, he was chosen as part of Design Indaba’s Emerging Creative Class of 2020 and has since received praise for his works in other reputable South African publications (VISI, House&Leisure, SA Art Times).
